The Pound Ridge Harvest Festival 2025 is back on Saturday, October 4th from 1–6pm at Pound Ridge Town Park. This Westchester tradition is part Oktoberfest, part family carnival, and part small-town magic. Think cider donuts, Grammy-nominated bands, kids in wizard hats, and maybe even a goat or two. In other words: peak quirky fall energy.
🍔 Feast Like a Local
The Food Garden is basically a festival within the festival. Local favorites are rolling in, including:
- Bona Bona Ice Cream – over-the-top scoops with toasted meringue
- Walter’s Hot Dogs – a Westchester legend since 1919
- Leila’s Crepe Station – sweet and savory perfection
- Grey’s Donuts – fluffy, fall-ready happiness
- Mobile Pie – wood-fired pizza from a truck
- Tipsy Taco Bar – tacos worth getting messy for
Pro tip: don’t leave without an apple cider donut. They’re practically currency at this point.
🎶 Music That Moves You
This isn’t background music—it’s a full concert lineup:
- John Praino (1–2pm): Acoustic covers to ease you in.
- The Soul Rebels (2:30–3:30pm): A New Orleans brass band colliding with funk, hip-hop, and pure joy.
- The Record Company (4–5:30pm): Grammy-nominated rock trio with gritty blues energy. Basically: don’t forget your dancing shoes.
🧙 Family Fun (With a Magical Twist)
The kids’ pavilion is a dreamland of rides, games, and crafts. This year’s star? The Wizardry Experience—complete with wand-making, a haunted maze, and frothy mugs of butter beer. (We’ll be repping our Wizardry & Witchcraft collection—because cosplay-lite is kind of our thing.)
Other highlights: pumpkin crafts, obstacle courses, goats, face paint, and mini golf. It’s basically childhood bottled up in tickets.
🧩 How to Do the Festival, Quirky-Style
- Layer up. October in Westchester is unpredictable—tees and hoodies are the winning combo.
- Flex your niche. Whether it’s a chess tee, unbothered hoodie, or wizard mug, wear your weird with pride. We’ll have plenty at the Capy Life booth and online in our collections.
- Snack smart. Split plates so you can taste more vendors… but kettle corn? Guard it with your life.
